Final Rossi Yamaha M1 | Wallpaper

After the final 2010 Valencia MotoGP round, Italian Valentino Rossi says goodbye to his Yamaha M1 (and hello to his Ducati GP11); the Yamaha MotoGP bike that Rossi personally helped developed from a dead-loser to a dominate winner.

The Yamaha M1 is a liquid-cooled crossplane crankshaft inline four-cylinder, four-stroke with power of over 200 horsepower (147KW). Although not the fastest top-end motorcycle in the MotoGP paddock, the top speed is in excess of 200 mph.

The M1 suspension is comprised of an Ohlins upside down front forks and Ohlins rear shock, all adjustable for pre-load, high and low-speed compression and rebound damping. Alternative rear suspension links available.

Valentino Rossi finished third on his 117th and final MotoGP appearance in Spain for Yamaha, ending a seven-year partnership where VR46 enjoyed 46 wins on the Yamaha M1. "The Doctor" heads to Ducati for 2011.
